Important information
For Professional Investors only
The value of investments, and the income from them, can go down as well as up and you may get back less than the amount invested. Past performance is not a guide to future results. Tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each investor and may be subject to change in the future. We recommend that you seek financial advice prior to making an investment decision.
The following risk factors apply specifically to this Fund. These are in addition to the generic risks of investing. A full list of the risks applicable to this Fund can be found in the Prospectus which is available on the website or upon request.
Investors should be aware of the following risk factors:
- Commercial property is less liquid than other asset classes such as bonds or equities. Selling property can be a lengthy process so investors in the fund should be aware that they may not be able to sell their investment when they want to.
- Commercial property transaction charges are higher than those which apply in other asset classes. Investors should be aware that a high volume of transactions would have a material impact on fund returns.
- Property valuation is a matter of judgement by an independent valuer and is therefore a matter of the valuer’s opinion rather than fact.
- he use of derivatives carries the risk of reduced liquidity, substantial loss and increased volatility in adverse market conditions, such as a failure amongst market participants. The use of derivatives may result in the fund being leveraged (where market exposure and thus the potential for loss by the fund exceeds the amount it has invested) and in these market conditions the effect of leverage will be to magnify losses. The fund does not make extensive use of derivatives.
Past performance does not predict future returns. The value of investments, and the income from them, can go down as well as up and clients may get back less than the amount invested.
Please refer to the Private Placement Memorandum of the AIF before making any final investment decisions.
Real estate is a relatively illiquid asset class, the valuation of which is a matter of opinion. There is no recognised market for property and there can be delays in realising the value of assets.
